Other Money Makers

Speaking of computers, Pyro has another way of making money because he’s a Computer Whiz: he can hack at night, siphoning funds from Kleptomaniacs Anonymous and other causes directly into the family bank account. Woot!

There are other such trait-based money making schemes. For example, Geniuses can solve math problems on a computer for some cash, and Mooches can beg for money from their friends and family.

You also can spend money to make money. With all the cash he’s made from writing, Pyro heads over to the local businesses and starts buying in to become a partner. It costs several thousand simoleons to do this, with higher-end businesses charging more… But you know the cliche: you have to spend money to make money.

Once Pyro is a partner of a business, he can make weekly stops at the business to draw a small weekly salary from it. He could spend even more money to become the full owner, which gives him the power to rename the lot, fire anyone employed, and draw a higher weekly salary without actually doing any work! Once a lot is owned, he can sell it by interacting with his certificate in his Inventory Panel. He can also transfer lot ownership to anyone who lives with him the same way.
